IMPROVEMENT IN AlR-HEATING ATTACHMENTS.

Torall whom it may concern:

. Be it known that I, J oon M. PATTERSON, fiof Woodbury, in the county of Gloucester and State of New J er'sey, have invented a new anduseful Improvement in Air-Heating Attachments to Stoves, which improvement is fully i set forth in the following specification and accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is-a top view of a stove and attachment embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal vertical section thereof. Fig. 3 is a rear View of a portion of the attachment detached. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of a detached portion.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several figures.

. My invention consists of a stove having the usualcollar for the pipe, and an additional closed .collar for a jacket, which incloses the pipe and is open at top and bottom, and which provides a line or conduit for air heated by the pipe, and directs the same to an upper or other apartment.

It also consists ofa hood covering the top plate of the stove and communicating with the jacket, so as to gather the heat at the top of the stove and pass it into the jacket, from whence it is directed to an apartment difl'erent from that in which the stove is located.

Referring to the drawings, A represents a stove which, excepting so far as it relates to my invention, 'is of usual construction. .13 represents the open collar of the stove, for attachment of' the pipe 0, said collar being supported on a larger, but closed, collar, D, which rises from the top plate of the stove.

To the collar D is fitted a jacket, E, consistin g of a pipe of greater diameter than the pipe 0 and inclosing the same, so that there is an air-space, a, between them. At the base of the jacket E is an opening, b, which directs air to the space a. The upper termination of the jacket E opens-into an apartment overhead, or, by suitable branches, into side apartments, and

registersmay there be provided for evident purposes.

. The top or horizontal portion of the pipe 0 passes through an opening in the jacket and communicates with the chimney, as usual; or

said pipe C may be extended so as to pass through the upper apartment before connection with the chimney.

1 Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 222,528, dated December 9, 1879; application filed i l r October 17, 1879.

It will be seen that when air of the apartment in which the stove is located enters the opening 12 of the jacket, it is heated in the space a by the pipe 0, and passes out in a heated condition at the upper termination of the jacket, thus warming another apartment.

F represents a hood, consisting of a plate, with side pieces, which rest on the top of the stove, and forming thereat a space or conduit, d, which is open in front and closed in rear, and communicates with the opening I) of the jacket the jacket E passing through the hood.

hen the hood is applied in position the air of the apartment seeks the opening b of the jacket through the conduit d, and the heat at the top of the stove is likewise passed through said opening 12 into the jacket, thus providing an economical, convenient, and serviceable heating medium for other apartments, the hood being, preferably, employed at night, when the stove is not otherwise reqnired.

The hood is made in sections or parts cf, so as to be readily fitted to the stove and jacket. The section a has tongues g at its side, which overlap the side pieces of the hood, and its top is overlapped by the top of the section f,

thus forming tightand locking joints, which prevent escape of heat thereat and unintentional separation of the sections, such separation, however, when desired, being readily accomplished by properly withdrawing the sections from each other.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

1. The stove formed with the open collar B and closed collar D, in combination with the pipe 0 and a surrounding jacket, E, open at both top and bottom substantially as and for the purpose setforth.

2. A hood in combination with a communieating jacket surrounding the pipe of a stove, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

3. The hood-section 6, formed with tongues g, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
